Annunen will protect the road goal in Thursday's preseason game versus the Golden Knights, per the NHL media site.
Annunen has had mediocre results this preseason, allowing six goals on 52 shots over two appearances. He'll likely be playing in his last preseason game Thursday against a nearly full NHL-level lineup for the Golden Knights. Annunen is projected to serve as backup to Alexandar Georgiev in 2024-25.
